Departure …

… Rowan Williams resigns as archbishop of Canterbury | UK news | The Guardian. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)


Bryan tweets that "Rowan embodied something John Gray said after meeting some clergy: 'The church is the last repository of doubt in the modern world.' " 


Doubt and faith go hand in hand, but Archbishop Williams seems to have had few doubts when it came to politics, an area where doubt is of vast utility. That said, he has always struck me as a genuinely good man, and that covereth a multitude of certainties.
